Hey,

i am just noticed that I can't run my mele quieter 2 by using the usb hub on a Pegasus Astro powerbox advance.
someone on astrobin recommended to use this adapter https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07XZ7Q2N7/?pldnSite=1&th=1
but I wonder, is this really going to work? there is a note that this adapter isn't able to get used with 12v devices. 

are there any other (better) solutions to power my mele through my powerbox? 

thx and cs
Andi

I have the Powerbox Micro and use that adapter for the quieter3 and it works fine.

Hi Andi,

I used this cable https://www.amazon.de/-/en/gp/product/B085M3F4XQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. Plug it in 12V output of Pegasus and the other end (USB C) in the Melee. It has to be powered by 12v source, not usb hub.

I hope you will solve it.

CS,

Vasile

I am surprised these work. I'm trying to find a solution for this and what has been described is not suitable for 12 volts, they are 5 volts only.

That all you need I plugged mine into one of my 12v ports on Pegasus and have been powering my Mele flawlessly
